FedEx has announced the rollout of FedEx SameDay Local, a delivery offering designed to enable its customers to meet rising consumer expectations for flexibility, control, and convenience.
In collaboration with last-mile delivery solution company OneRail, FedEx SameDay Local will let shoppers choose two-hour or end-of-day delivery directly at checkout.
The service will connect FedEx customers to a national network of more than 1,000 delivery providers, coordinated through intelligent orchestration.
Orders are then automatically matched to the appropriate vehicle and driver, dispatched quickly, and tracked with live updates from pickup to delivery.
Reportedly, FedEx SameDay Local will enable time-definite delivery windows, including two-hour and end-of-day service with a national network.
Additionally, near real-time tracking will be available from pickup to drop-off, with predictive ETAs, and proof of delivery guaranteed.
FedEx also stated that flexible integration through efficient API connections and full platform support, smart orchestration using AI-driven rules will be used to optimise delivery provider selection, routing, and delivery performance.
FedEx SameDay Local also includes 24/7 support with proactive monitoring to help stay ahead of delay or disruptions from pickup to arrival, and the ability to fulfill large, oversized, or specialised deliveries
FedEx senior vice president, digital portfolio, Jason Brenner, said: “At FedEx, we’re supporting our customers in pushing the boundaries of their value proposition around speed and convenience.
“FedEx SameDay Local will provide our customers with a scaled solution to give the delivery options customers want, without adding complexity to their operations—all backed by the confidence of working with FedEx.”
